The insult 'cow'

Why do you ladies call each other cows when you get angry? I don’t get the insult?

I wouldn’t mind being called a bull all day :hmmm:

What is with ladies and fatness related ‘swear’ words?

Are ladies much attuned to how healthy another women is or how their figure is? I am sure guys don’t care if another person (other than their spouse) is fat or not. But with ladies the first curse word to come out is ‘you cow’. I had neighbours arguing last year, two women, the amount of times the word ‘cow’ was used was mind-boggling.

I am just asking why the word ‘cow’

:hmmm:

Re: The insult 'cow'

coz it's pretty harmless if you compare it to b or f word.

besides it can also be used for men as in "gawaachi gaan".

Re: The insult 'cow'

They are being called fat. And that they eat grass.

Re: The insult ‘cow’

I find gawaachi gaan funny, I think it cool down any arguments LOL.

Re: The insult ‘cow’

I was going to put it in Health first but then I thought…obv you can move it :wink:

Re: The insult 'cow'

i think cows are cute.so are sheeps and camels and bunnies and cats.

Re: The insult 'cow'

So why do women say it as an insult?

Women are very weird things. Admit it.

Re: The insult 'cow'

Cow is fat as well as simpleton so when you call a woman cow that means you're calling her dumb and fat.

Pigs are quite cute too though.

Re: The insult ‘cow’

and we come out of them , which is scary :eek:

Re: The insult 'cow'

Should I call people pigs then hareem? :p

Re: The insult 'cow'

lol

This is actually quite interesting how we associate animals with humans based on their common traits. Pig is greedy and lustful, mouse is a coward, donkey and cow are stupid and dumb, wolves are violent criminals with no morals, etc etc

I even started a thread in Philosophy on a similar topic. I think we can learn a lot from animals when it comes to self analysis.

Re: The insult ‘cow’

:rotfl: I love this thread. :omg:

Re: The insult ‘cow’

Re: The insult 'cow'

Re: The insult ‘cow’

LOL this reminds of a sci-fi movie about a society in which people decompose their dead and turn them in to a greenish grass like supplement.

Re: The insult ‘cow’

Re: The insult 'cow'

I guess a guy would never mind being called bull, I never did.
